Viejamar is a wonderful hostel. The location is perfect, right on the beach near the village of Las Tunas. If you look for tranquility it’s the place to go to, you can relax at the hostel around the pool, on the balcony or in the chilling areas or at the beach. Everything is outdoors, you can sometimes spot hummingbirds, iguanas, crabs and many other birds. The staff is great, always here to make sure the guests get the best experience.

Quiet and charming lodge

Reviewed By rupisammakko

Nice and quiet place very close to a long empty beach. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good cuisine. Ideal place to make daily journeys to Isla de la plata, Salango and Puerto Lopez. We can truly recommend if you enjoy a calm surrounding.

Wipeout Cabana Restaurant

Love

Reviewed By Touring2024

This place is amazing. The family is very nice. This place is very comfortable. The sea breeze in the morning along with sound of the waves. I never thought that after I left I would still be going back in my mind to the trip. This place is really nice and once you stay here, you don’t want to go back home.

Hosteria Guachapeli

Our facilities are located 300 steps from the beach and one of the best surf breaks in Ecuador. A well-kept secret, our beach remains uncrowded. Our rooms gaze upon the Pacific Ocean. We are located on the central coast, close to everywhere yet far from the noise. Guachapeli is privileged to sit near the small beach town of Las Tunas. Our rooms are a football field away from a crowdless beach with amazing waves. Hotel Guachapeli is family owned and guest happiness oriented. Rooms are comfortable and air conditioned, with a beautiful view and a hammock. Guachapeli's restaurant serves delicious Ecuadorian and international favorites. Our kitchen staff is talented, creative and counts on fresh ingredients. Catch of the day delights include fish, lobster, prawns, calamari, oysters, clams and octopus. We offer assistance to our guests in organizing scuba diving tours, fishing tours, bird watching, whale watching, surf lessons and board rentals. Guests are our number one priority

Onda Hostel

We focus more on fun, chill, nice vibes. We welcome any backpacker who has good stories to tell, whatever the age. We offer large social areas, a common kitchen and clean rooms (dorm, family or cabana), each with its own private bathroom. We'll also provide you with multiple activities on site or in the area but reading a book in a hammock enjoying an ocean view is also part of the experience!

Unmissable spot for relaxation and surfing on the coast of Ecuador

Reviewed By Shaun M

I was lucky enough to arrive at Onda before it had opened and spend a total of several months there volunteering, so I saw a big part of the early evolution if this amazing place, and got to know it’s owners Mat and Maribel really well. The hostel itself is super comfy and is really well equipped; the dorms are spacious with nice beds and the essential mosquito nets, the bathrooms are clean and the showers have hot water, the private cabanas are personal, cute and have two small patios with seats and hammocks to lay the day away, and the entire hostel has lots of nice little spots to hang out and enjoy the beautiful weather. And best of all, the kitchen is huge, and becomes a really fun common space to meet other travellers and share chats and card games. Staying for a while, you notice that guests that arrive at Onda tend to stay a little longer than anticipated, and I think that speaks to how comfortable and fun the hostel is, both for it’s amenities and for the atmosphere. It has a familiar, personal vibe (or onda?) and that’s a credit to the owners Mat and Maribel and the volunteers that they attract to be a part of the team. Once you meet them and the resident dog and cat, Gallito and Tortilla, it becomes pretty hard to leave. Add the beach with it’s warm water and fun waves, and a tasty breakfast everyday, and you have a combination that’s hard to beat. Oh and make sure you get upstairs or to the beach to watch the sunset! Thanks guys!

Not amazing

Reviewed By paolacS5265EB

So I booked my stay there expecting a paradise like they show in the pictures and yes the place is beautiful but the pictures must be very old because it is different from what it shows. I was disappointed in 3 things: 1. It is too expensive for what it has to offer. I will pay only maximum 30 dollars for a night in there, since the rooms are not that comfortable and the bathroom not clean, it has a lot of mold. 2. The pool is not very warm. For me and my baby it was kind of cold. 3 The place needs urgent maintenance. Everything is getting too old and braking. The hammocks and seats at the beach are destroyed. I dont think I could go back. There are cheaper places that offer more.
